Each chapter starts with a task we undertake during a typical day and relates it to ways we can ease the world’s suffering. We begin by eating breakfast—so the first chapter focuses on alleviating world hunger. We might stop by the bank later that day—how can we expand access to microcredit and banking services? In the evening we pick up a good book—what can we do to spread literacy?
The chapters are short and pithy, full of specific facts, resources for learning more, and menus of simple, often fun, and always practical action steps .
